will result in damages to the Cit yN, including, but not limited to, public
inconvenience, obstruction in trafficO, interference with business, lost
revenue, and increased design professionTal, inspection, and administration
costs. In light of the difficulty of making a precise determination of such
E
damages, the City and the Contractor agree that the sum of Five Hundred
X
($500) per calendar day will be charged against tEhe Contractor, not as a
penalty, but as liquidated damages, for each calendaCr day between the
Contract Completion Date and the date upon which CoUntractor achieves
final completion of the Work. This sum represents a reasoTnable estimate of
E
the amount of damages to potentially be suffered by the City each day if
final completion of the Work is not achieved by the Contract Completion
Date.
b. Accrual of Liquidated Damages. Liquidated damages will continue to
accrue until final completion of the Work is achieved, even if it becomes
necessary for the City without the Contractor's involvement to take actions
necessary to achieve final completion of the Work.
c. Reasonableness of Liquidated Damages. Contractor acknowledges that the
amount of liquidated damages set forth in this Paragraph is a reasonable
9

projection of the damages to be suffered by the City in the event that final
completion of the Work is not achieved by the Contract Completion Date.
d. Contractor's Knowledge of Liquidated Damages Provision before Bid
Submission. Contractor further acknowledges that Contractor was aware of
and considered this liquidated damages provision and the need to achieve
final completion of the Work by the Contract Completion Date in preparing
and submitting its bid for the Work and in entering into the Agreement to
perform the Work.
11. EXTENSIONS OF THE CONTRACT COMPLETION DATE.
a. Basis for Extension Request. The Contractor may request extensions of the
S
Contract Completion Date based upon delays to the critical path of the Work
A
caused by events that could not have reasonably been anticipated by the
M
Contractor and which are totally beyond the Contractor's control.
P
L
Ei. The occurrence of a number of adverse weather days on a monthly
basis equal to the average number of adverse weather days for the
C
Omonth at issue in the vicinity of the Work (based on no greater an
area than zip code) during the previous five (5) years as shown by
N
dataT accumulated by a nationally recognized weather monitoring
and reRcordkeeping service shall be reasonably anticipated by the
ContractoAr.
C
ii. Any adverse wTeather days claimed by the Contractor must be
beyond the numb-er of reasonably anticipated weather days as set
forth above and musDt actually delay the critical path of the Work.
O
iii. The need to order materia lNs, retain subcontractors, and take other
actions sufficiently in advanceO of when materials or subcontractors
are required to perform the WorkT in a timely fashion and to achieve
final completion of the Work by the Contract Completion Date shall
E
be reasonably anticipated by the Contractor.
X
E
b. Timing of Extension Request for Non-Weather-ReClated Reasons. Except
for weather-related requests, the Contractor must subUmit a request for an
extension of the Contract Completion Date in Twriting to the
Architect/Engineer within five (5) calendar days of the ocEcurrence of the
event upon which the request for an extension is based.
c. Content of Extension Request for Non-Weather- Related Reasons. A written
notice from the Contractor seeking an extension of the Contract Completion
Date for a non-weather-related event must:
